Data Visualization

This homework assignment has two parts. 

Part 1:  Find two examples, a good one and a bad one, of data visualizations used recently in the media. You can use any online source such as online newspapers, blogs, social media, etc. For each of the two visualizations, briefly describe (3-5 sentences) its features (what makes it good) and/or bugs (what makes it bad).  Create a document named

“Vizzes – YourPreferredName.docx” (e.g. “Vizzes – Zarko.docx”) that includes the two visualizations, or links to their original sources, and your descriptions.

 

Part 2:  Create three charts that visualize some aspects of the data about the 10 vizzes that we generated and collected (using DataViz Tinder form).

The raw data will be available on Sakai in the Data subfolder of Resources and is named “DataViz Votes.xlsx”.  , add any calculations and formulas to this file, in separate tabs, and include your charts in another tab named “My Vizzes”.  In this tab include your name as well as brief descriptions of the charts.  , submit the updated and renamed file as “DataViz Votes YourPreferredName.xlsx” workbook on Sakai.  To receive full credit, at least two of your visualizations should include data about the adjectives assigned to the 10 vizzes.
